Mr. Mohammad Al Baijat
Mr. Al Baijat has a solid education in power engineering and proven twelve (12) years of working experience in Market Applications, Power Systems, Operations, EMS and Optimization.  Mr. Al Baijat has design, implementation, testing and maintenance of power system and market applications software (Ancillary Services, Congestion Management, RTMA (RTC, RTD)).  In addition he also has extensive experience in the design, implementation, testing and maintaining network power system applications and EMS applications (Power Flow, Optimal Power Flow, Contingency Analysis, State Estimation, DTS, etc.) along with network scheduling applications (Unit Commitment with Transmission Constraints and Different type of constraints).

Mr. Al Baijat has worked in different deregulation projects (CAISO, NYISO, IESO, KPX and ERCOT).  He is very strong in testing power systems deregulation software applications; preparing test cases, executing test cases as well as overall test management.

Some of Mr. Al Baijat’s other skills include:

• Optimization Tools using MINUS, CPLEX and MATLAB.
• Seven (7) years experience in power system deregulation (Most of it at the CAISO).
• Experienced in various market models, Zonal Model, LMP, different market rules and market economics. 
• Highly Skilled in (C, C++) based on UNIX platforms, Scripting languages (Perl and Python).
• Proven experience in project management and execution.
• Worked in several of the electric energy markets implemented in the world (CAISO, NYISO, IESO, South Korea System and ERCOT).

His most recent experience involves the following projects:
